See, another hit piece on Obama turn up to be a pragmatic solution that Hillary Clinton also embrased.

The difference is that Obama offered the Teamsters the appointment of judges to get rid of the federal oversight on the unions in order to get their endorsement while Clinton only gave her opinion. There was no quid pro quo with Clinton but there was quid pro quo with Obama. Its a similar patttern we've been seeing in him getting endorsements. He makes background deals. He's the one who isn't trusthworthy.

Wow First Read...you guys are actually reporting the news from both sides today and are doing a little bit of investigative reporting to arrive at the facts without bias spin either way.  And you managed to do it without mentioning Reverend Wright.  LOL!

G-D as my witness, I was thinking the same thing when I read the 'Quid Pro Quo' article earlier! I too considered that perhaps The Teamsters had long since mended their ways, and deserved a chance to go about their business without being forever treated like parolees! I wondered if that was where Obama was coming from.

Thank you First Read for your 'take-back'. It was expedient and greatly appreciated, though this article should never have seen the light of day. 'If', and 'may', is not language that should ever be used when impuning someones hard earned reputation.

Be more responsible in the future. There is a very good man's character at stake here. You know, do unto others..........

Senator Clinton was right about one thing she said, "You can't go around dragging the ball and chain of the past." Perhaps we are all now in agreement. It is time to move on and leave the past behind. It is time to take the high road.

There goes that famous Clinton "double talk" again.....

Oversight of Unions has really cut into Democratic fundraising. Unions are clean as whistles now in days. Ask Barack, he knows a lot about the Chicago unions.

The way MSM has been acting lately.  Why do I get a sense the Clintons have promised them all they can be the press secretary if they help her get into the White House.  It is like some kind of contest to see who is the best at bringing down her opponent. We are just watching it.  I am just waiting for a telephone number at the end so we can vote who American thinks is the best.  

The cable pundits must be disappointed.  No story here although I'm sure they can create one.

Stop spinning that Obama cant win the White Vote.... Here is the proof read it for your self:

MSM is not reporting the facts... There lying just like Hillary

Actions speak better than words.

Mr Obama choose Mr. Wright as his spiritual teacher for 20 years and included Mr. Wright in his election staff, these are the actions of Mr. Obama. When shocking hate messages began to flow from the mouth of Mr. Wright on television, hyperbole spin was written for Mr. Obama distancing Mr. Obama from Mr. Wright. The weird thing is, some people actually believe the spin written by Mr. Obama’s election machine. But regardless what Mr. Obama says, he chose Mr. Wright as his spiritual teacher for 20 years and added Mr. Wright to his election staff.

If you make the choice to listen and learn from Hitler every week over 20 years, do you expect me or any other rational being to believe that you wouldn’t be or want to be influenced by Hitler’s ideas? And what does that say of your personal integrity if you chose American hating Mr. Wright, or Mr. Hitler as your guide in life?

And also consider recent announcement that the chief of the firm involved in the State Department’s passport breach is one of Obama’s adviser. And that Obama has been caught lying about Rezko, regarding the amount of money Rezko gave him, and that Obama still hasn’t come clean about his Rezko land deal. Or further, how Mrs. Obama makes a phenomenal $317.000 a month at a hospital in Chicago that is famous for turning away the poor, especially the black poor.

If Obama were to become president, what would stop Mr. Obama from appointing Mr. Wright to his cabinet? And after Mr. Wright’s appointment, if anyone complained they would be called racist. And it seems as if this strategy - that it is racist to criticize a black man - is already in effect as Mr. Obama can do anything corrupt with minimal impunity by the public or the press. But if Hillary so much as sneezes, she is taken through the laundry and hung out to dry and then beaten some more. Such bias treatment towards Mr. Obama because of his race is racial discrimination. And I believe another reason why Mrs. Clinton is unfairly criticized to such an extreme is because the men of this country can’t stand the idea of a woman for president. Think about it. It seems a lot of powerful men in the media will do anything to keep Hillary Clinton from being president; clearly a libido thing.

We should have as our country’s leader someone with wisdom and knowledge, whose goal is the selfless betterment of the world. We should not elect someone with a personal agenda of personal power or select them because of the fashionably of their race or the prejudice of their gender.

No!

Rupert Murdoch's wall street journal would NEVER run a story meant to sabotage the Democratic Primary process!

Thanks for "THE REST OF THE STORY"
This is an example of how one side can tell half-truths, and distort facts into appearing scandalous, when they're not.  We get played all the time.

Looks like another attack piece.  This article seems dated at best

Also could someone tell me where the bill Obama is trying to stealth pass (Global Hunger Bill) over 800 billion tax dollars to go to UN to help 3rd world countries.Not us help  but Un . They did such a good job with oil for food. Obama has pledged allience to Africa for his church is this part of his stradagy for Africa. I am for helping but believe it shouldnt be given to UN. We do give billions now also.Why is this going under radar??Union dues ,would this be affected too.?Do they know what he is trying to do??He believes in sharing wealth,land and resources. This is a global government inthe makeing.Does Union go along??Is this what Farrakhan ment when he said Obama would change the country and world.I see Obama has put that back into his end of speeches. Change the country and world.The house has passed this already.Can someone give me an update and is the union along with this?It is also the start of second amend. loss.Check it out.

Yet another Hillary "Republican" Clinton lie that's been exposed for what it is.  Thanks FR for coming clean on your previous bit of Obama bashing.

Go Obama!

So?
Another proof that you are essentially hack jobs. The said thing about proof is that they are quite unrelenting! (But tell me isn't that the same for hackery?)

keep trying first read. if you throw out enough negative bullcrap on obama while pumping up hillary maybe your obvious dreams will come true

MSNBC HAS BECOME FOX NEWS!

YOU SOULS HAVE BEEN PAID FOR BY THE CLINTON CAMPAIGN!

There is a part missing from this: if there was a Senate vote, how did Obama vote?  Did (does) Obama have any influence or control over the group(s) that have a way of controling these investigating group?  

What were the reasons that the Teamsters went with Obama over Clinton?  I am doubting that the teamsters will be that influencial over their members

Senator Clinton needs over 77% of the remaining votes and super delegates to win.  

Game over, the fat lady has sung, it's time to unite behind the winner and fight together against the Republican nominee.  

No matter how the "values" voters vote, the gay population will still be 5-10% of the population and they will be living among us as tax paying productive members of society.

No matter how the "values" voters vote, abortion will still be available, for the poor it will be "back alley" and risky, for the rich it will be overseas.  The goal is to make it rare by sensibly teaching prevention along with morals.  

No matter how the "liberal" voters vote, prayer will still be said in school, especially before tests and sporting events.

No matter how the "liberal" voters vote, the second amendment will still allow lawful gun ownership.

So this time, Vote with your head, vote for the economy, vote for the environment, vote for jobs.

Vote Democratic 2008 -- don't let the corporations and their Republican stooges win again.
